(4 - 6) Tobruk Line

The terrain of Tobruk's outskirts were among the most demanding of the entire war, dragging what could have been a sweeping skirmish lasting only a few hours into a siege that lasted over 240 days. Sand in the Western Deserts of Africa gave way to dirty outcroppings and formidable rock: foxholes were laborious to build, light vehicles were often damaged at high speeds, tank tracks were jammed, fuel was contaminated and weapons were clogged with sand. Infantry were the backbone of any assault, but facing overwhelming heat in the day and freezing cold at night, even they were pushed beyond their limits.
